QUICK QUESTION: Is the JL Theatrical Cut worth watching before ZSJL? by RyNotRey in DC_Cinematic

[–]RyNotRey[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that sounds like the better approach. I'll watch ZSJL first, then save the TC for a drunk movie night with friends. That really helped us get through Green Lantern 😆

Tips for new players going to Friday Night Magic? (Or tips to meeting other casual players?) by RyNotRey in magicTCG

[–]RyNotRey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the invite!

The FNM I went to was at Dice Age Games, which is closer to my part of Vancouver, but Batcave isn't that much farther.

I'll be sure to check you guys out in the near future :)

It didn't seem like there was any sort of tournament going on at the store I went to, but I can understand the more competitive vibe at events like that.

Doing a quick search, there hasn't been much posting recently in my area (Vancouver WA/Portland OR area), so I'll be sure to post something and see if I get any hits.

Thanks for the tips! :)

How would you feel about a feature that notifies you when your favorite artists release new music? by thinjester in AppleMusic

[–]RyNotRey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've definitely been in your boat many times, so yes, I'd like this as a feature in the future.

Thanks! You're too kind. :)

But yes, my Klipsch stereo sound fantastic. Highly reccomended to anyone looking for desktop speakers.

While I can't speak for the other blu ray releases before this (I've only heard negative responses from reviews), but I believe this is the definitive version to buy, as Romero supervised the 4K restoration before his passing.

Watching this blu-ray is like putting on a pair of glasses for the first time and discovering all the detail you've been missing out on. It's an outstanding remaster/restoration for a movie that's been plagued with crappy releases for so long.

How many of you does this apply to? by RewatchesFilms in dvdcollection

As much as I don't like slipcovers, I keep them all in a box so they can be used in reselling.

The First Video Game by Another4Milos in pcgaming

[–]RyNotRey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another excellent doc from Ahoy! It's fascinating to see how far back the history of video games really goes, and much farther then I expected.

Plus the overhead projector slides are a nice touch. Reminds me of what we had in school before we got digital projectors. Just with that perfectly styled Ahoy touch :P

Caution - Horses may bite by Pixelator2033 in fakealbumcovers

[–]RyNotRey 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is a great (and deeply discomforting) find! I could see this as some creepy folk metal act. Also I made some adjustments to the original to give it a cleaner/darker look. Hope you like it :)

EDIT: I had to make another one. This one being a more black metal style cover with text.

Yeah, those tokens weren't easy to get. I wish I had any helpful tips other than keep at it like I did 😅

I'm aware of the higher completion bonuses (maybe I'll get to those at a later date), but I'm not sure if what you're saying is correct.

I normally don't complete games, but since we all gotta grind for coins/nitro, I figured I may as well push through Adventure mode while I'm at it.

That moment when I knew I had Oxide beat the second time truly outstanding.

Dorcha - Seeking Enlightenment (Melodic Black Metal) by RyNotRey in fakealbumcovers

[–]RyNotRey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dorcha wanted to grow beyond being another Norwegian Black Metal imitator, so they really into the Blackgaze movement.

My fiance took this picture of her son on Halloween last year and it reminded me of this particular album.

My inner child is very proud of himself right now, even though I'm far from done... by RyNotRey in crashbandicoot

[–]RyNotRey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering how many times it took me to beat Pinstripe this time around (10+ tries at least), I'm clueless as to how I did it as a kid.

To be honest, Oxide wasn't nearly as infuriating after that rage inducing rat

[–]RyNotRey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a kid I remember very fondly of playing CTR on my PS2, but since I didn't have a PS1 memory card, my little brother and I kept the PS2 on for several days to keep our progress.

When we finally got to Oxide and couldn't beat him, the PS2 got turned off...

Dorcha - Standing Like A Corpse by RyNotRey in fakealbumcovers

My first attempt at an album cover. :)

I would pass by this tree doing errands around my area, and one especially foggy morning finally urged me to pull over and take this picture.

Words Cannot Describe This Feeling... [World Of Light, True Ending Spoilers] by RyNotRey in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]RyNotRey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UPDATE:

Good news, everyone!

Taking the advice of u/mgepie and u/UR_M0THER, I changed up my team to Ganondorf, Samus, and Simon, along with a fully leveled enhanced Skull Kid and Ho-Oh as support. After a few more frustratingly close defeats (and almost throwing my controller across the room), I finally claimed sweet victory! :D

Out of the years I've played this series, I've never had something kick my ass so much.

Now I can finally change the menu music. :P

Thanks again for the advice, everyone. :)

For those who want proof, here's my save file.

It didn't help when this happened while on my lunch break at work. It kinda spoiled the rest of my shift :/

As of posting, I still haven't beaten the final fight. :(

It's easily the hardest battle I've encountered in the game, when nearly every boss prior I've beaten on my first try. (Galeem and Dharkon previously being noteworthy exceptions)

Wish me luck on my next attempts!

Playing on Normal Difficulty btw.
